"I don't like it when people find out what I really think"

[-] Gradually_Adjusting@lemmy.world 1 points 3 weeks ago

Seriously. If everything I said leaked to billions of people, I'd be a comedic phenomenon, a trendsetter, and a terrorist.

[-] phoenixz@lemmy.ca 2 points 3 weeks ago

why does everyone treat me like I'm an asshole?

Asks the asshole

[-] vk6flab@lemmy.radio 2 points 3 weeks ago

That's what it feels like when you steal other people's personal information ..

[-] clockworkstone@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 3 weeks ago

If only that feeling could be cranked up for him x 3 billion.

[-] cyberpunk007@lemmy.ca 0 points 3 weeks ago

To be fair, if it's personal and you don't want it out there, don't put it on anything on the internet.

Meta goes far beyond simply scraping data you consciously send to them.

[-] MaxPow3r11@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago

Oh no...is someone taking your privacy?

That's interesting...

I hate Facebook and that they will ban people, without notice, unless they record a video selfie from multiple angles, and then still sometimes permanently ban people even then, without a way to pay to prove the person is real or talk to someone or even get a reason for the ban. I also think Facebook is an arm of the government and is not really a company (quasi-governmental) and is basically a corporate rebranding of LifeLog and Zuckerberg probably got a 1600 on his SATs and was recruited to join the government while in high school.

So that all being said, despite my hatred of Facebook, what he is saying isn't that illogical.

Let's say Zuckerberg personally supports trans rights and thinks Trump is an idiot. He can't say that in a meeting that will obviously have leaks. It would be "value-destroying." Say what you want about Zuckerberg, but most people with enough intelligence don't hate trans people because they understand science and how prenatal hormone conditions and epigenetic conditions means that sometimes internal senses of gender don't match biological at birth sex. (Musk is the rare exception to this and it seems like his reaction comes from ego and anger about being estranged from his daughter and autism/lack of empathy, and so he's a weird data point that doesn't neatly fit if we take his reaction at face value.)

So let's say Zuckerberg wants to say "We support trans and gay people, we have to do this so Trump doesn't go after us to remain profitable and not end up needing to decrease our head count, I hate Trump." If he said that, someone would immediately leak it, Trump would go Ape Shit, and the company would lose value.

It's hard to know for certain if this is what he's talking about, but if he is, this isn't really something to fault him on.

Facebook labeling linux as somehow evil, on the other hand, is a bizarre and shitty thing to do, so fuck Facebook and fuck this asshole who is letting linux be labeled as a cybersecurity threat. I also think Facebook doing this is because government, which has backdoors in Microsoft and Apple OSes, doesn't like linux and sees it growing in popularity and so I believe the government requested Facebook do this. I can't fathom a social media company would do this for no reason on their own, it makes no sense, but if Facebook is Lifelog and always has been Lifelog and Zuckerberg gets his orders from someone else, then it would make sense that they implement policies regarding labeling linux as bad to try to keep their backdoors in as many users' OSes as possible.

Is that dude turning orange?

[-] henfredemars@infosec.pub 1 points 3 weeks ago

You don’t wanna know where it’s been.

[-] zapzap@lemmings.world 1 points 2 weeks ago

Oh I think we all know.

[-] Fredselfish@lemmy.world 1 points 3 weeks ago

No he had his face stuck to Trump ass and some it transferred to Zuck.

“There are a bunch of things that I think are value-destroying for me to talk about, so I’m not going to talk about those…”

Well have you thought about not being a piece of shit 😂

[-] TransplantedSconie@lemm.ee 1 points 3 weeks ago

Imagine being worth 229 billion, and you look like that.

This realities Bond villains are so pathetic looking.

[-] MonkderVierte@lemmy.ml 0 points 3 weeks ago

Drugs and lack of sleep does that to you.

[-] acosmichippo@lemmy.world 1 points 3 weeks ago

he could at least find a better haircut than pube fro.

[-] iopq@lemmy.world 0 points 3 weeks ago

I have the same hair and it's fucking impossible

It dries and frizzes immediately. If you don't have time to care for it daily, it inevitably looks like this.

[-] acosmichippo@lemmy.world 1 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

this isn't some schmoe like you or me, he's a billionaire. he can afford a daily stylist, or at least before conference calls.

[-] Lost_My_Mind@lemmy.world 1 points 3 weeks ago

Drugs and sleep have no effect on cyborgs

If I’d had to bet whether this was The Onion before clicking this link, someone would be breaking my knees next week.

This timeline is absurd.

[-] M1nds3nd@lemmy.ca 1 points 3 weeks ago

I'm reminded of this:

The king himself rode a horse and shot arrows at a deer. However, the horse stumbled, causing him to fall off, but he was not injured. Looking around, he said, "Do not let the historians know about this."

Mark Zuckerberg did not address Meta’s $25 million settlement with Donald Trump that will see the company paying $22 million for the eventual establishment of the Trump Presidential Library.

My biggest surprise is that trump wants to establish a presidential library. Probably has some plan to steal the money from there.

I want to be able to be able to talk about stuff openly, but I am also trying to like, well, we’re trying to build stuff and create value in the world

PFFFFFFFHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAH

[-] phoenixz@lemmy.ca 1 points 3 weeks ago

settlement

He means bribery?

[-] breadsmasher@lemmy.world 1 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

zuck the fuck is worth approx 229billion.

a 25mil fine is 0.01% of his net worth.

If your average yearly salary is 30,000, thats like paying a fine of 3 ~~00~~.

edit math hard thank you @MrScottyTay@sh.itjust.works
